2018 Conference Vendor

New York State Outdoor Education Association

50 Years of Educating Outdoors

“NYSOEA is a professional organization that promotes interdisciplinary life-long learning in, for, and about the outdoors and seeks to inspire appreciation of the environment by all people.”

May, 2018

Dear Exhibitor or Advertiser,

In September 2018 one of the largest gatherings of outdoor and environmental educators and recreation enthusiasts will meet for the New York State Outdoor Education Association 50th Anniversary Conference. Professionals from the fields of recreation, education, environment and government will assemble at the Greenkill Outdoor Education and Retreat Center in Huguenot, NY to share their knowledge, skills, and experiences on this momentous occasion.

To help us celebrate this milestone and perpetuate our legacy of achievement we are offering a variety of promotional opportunities to organizations who share our passion and commitment of supporting education in the outdoors. The attached form offers advertising and on-site exhibit options, as well as naming sponsorships for conference events.

In addition to these exhibit, print, and sponsorship opportunities, an additional option for you to consider:

Unmanned Exhibit – Ship your exhibit and promotional materials to the conference venue and we will set it up, restock it and keep it organized throughout the event. This option is one way since we will not return anything back to you (promotional items will hopefully be taken by attendees). Send materials to fit on a 6 foot table (we will create a label with your name on it if you would like) with set-up photo or instructions (or we can use our judgement!) that will satisfy between 300 – 400+ conference attendees. The cost for this space will be $30 plus one item for our raffle. Simply note on the form you wish to take part in this option and we will contact you in advance regarding shipping directions and timing.

An additional benefit to exhibiting and/or purchasing a print ad is that exhibitors are free to attend general program sessions and speaker events.

If you choose not to exhibit or purchase print advertisement space, donating an item for the conference raffle or silent auction would be appreciated. Moneys raised from these two events go to help our outreach programs, scholarship opportunities and sending kids to summer camp.

We look forward to your support. If you have any questions please refer to the contact information located on the attached form.
